MESSAGE FROM CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD:
On December 15, 2014, the Board of Supervisors of New Britain Township adopted a 2015 Budget, reflecting no millage increase, and an Earned Income Tax of 1.025%. This Budget is balanced, fiscally responsible and meets both the short- and long-term goals of New Britain Township. The 2015 Budget provides the resources necessary to meet the goals of our community for the coming year: delivering services in the most cost-effective way, providing the needed investments in the community and insuring a successful future for those who live and work in New Britain Township.

Because of our long history of fiscal conservatism and the efforts initiated in prior years to prepare for the potential decrease in revenue in a trying economy, we are able to weather declining revenues without service impacts to general government, police, public works and recreation.

Our efforts will continue to foster a more productive work environment through continuous improvement and a careful assessment of essential services that is the provision of public services at the highest possible level and in the most fiscally responsible manner.

We welcome your comments and suggestions as we strive to keep New Britain Township a wonderful place to live, work and play.

John A. Bodden Sr., Chairman of the New Britain Township Board of Supervisors

New Britain Township Veterans Committee is currently in the early planning stages of creating a facility known as Veterans Park to honor all Veterans who served or are presently serving in the United States Armed Forces. The Park will be located on 62+ acres at New Galena Road and Walters Road. The land is owned by Bucks County and leased to New Britain Township for Parkland and Agricultural uses. The aspiration is to create "A peaceful air of contemplation" in conjunction with its existing Agricultural use.

Since November 2001, Bucks County has been providing transportation to our Veterans to VA Hospitals in Philadelphia and Coatesville. The Transportation Program is overseen by the Bucks County Department of Veterans Afairs and has carried over 11,000 Veterans FREE of charge. The bus runs 5 days a week coveraing all of Bucks County.
The program is unique because it is not a taxpayer funded program, but rather depends on donations and an annual golf outing. In addition the VA Hospital in Coatesville pays for all maintenance, fuel, and Insurance.

The BC EMA will assist First Responders with making the best use of limited time and resources to help those with no other options for evacuation during an emergency.
